- 1托斯卡尼(義大利中北部的大區,首府佛羅倫斯)。中國大陸多譯「托斯卡納」,台灣旅遊書、餐廳幾乎都用「托斯卡尼」。
Tuscany is a region in the middle-north of Italy, with Florence as its main city and , Siena and Lucca also inside it. In English the name does a lot of work beyond just pointing at a place on the map: it carries a whole picture — rolling green hills, lines of tall thin cypress trees, stone , olive groves, red wine ( comes from there), and the Renaissance art of Florence. So when English speakers say 'Tuscany', they often mean that dream of slow, warm, beautiful country living as much as the actual region. It has been a favourite holiday spot for comfortable British families for decades, so much so that British people joke about 'Chiantishire'. It is a proper noun, always capitalised and used with no 'the'. The adjective is 'Tuscan' — Tuscan food, a Tuscan village, the Tuscan countryside.
組成From Italian Toscana, and before that Late Latin Tuscānus, meaning 'belonging to the Tusci' — an ancient people of Italy. Tuscus is a shortened form of Etruscus, 'Etruscan'. So the name still remembers the Etruscans, who lived there long before the Romans.
